I have many domains (370) each with their own IP. How do I setup two Windows
2003 servers to load balance the web sites and setup redundancy with the two
systems so if one system goes down all the domains can still be accessed
from the other server?

Thanks,
Pete

You'll want to drop a load-balancer in front of the web servers, then
move those IPs over to being VIPs on the load-balancer. You would then
assign the "real" ips the load-balancers send the traffic to to the
public interface of each of the webservers, leaving the gw field empty.
You would then assign the VIPs (what were the old IPs) to the loopback
adapter and assign the gw to this adapter. You will also need to
replicate the content between the two servers as well as the metabase
and any registry keys (i.e. the ODBC or FrontPage keys) the sites use.
This is the short answer. ;)
